Our winters are 15 C - 25 C! Its winter now and gals are already rocking the tall boots! I will get a lot of wear from these kind of shoes, more than the boots. But I need boots to make my outfits look fresher. I don't own any boots now. But comfort is the key, and I think these shoes would slip off my heel after a few wears even though I have sized down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-a-shopping-mistake#post-1100410 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 14:12:05 +0000 MuseumGal 1100410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are cute for sure, but I wonder how much use you will get out of them this season (assuming you are in the northern hemisphere and experiencing winter?).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-a-shopping-mistake#post-1100400 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 13:58:29 +0000 Neel 1100400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ornella. I did buy them as MOTG walking shoes. I now think they are pricey and you are right about the absence of straps and walking comfort. My regular size was slipping off my feet. So I sized down. Don't think that's a good idea?! I guess I'll return and buy something better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-a-shopping-mistake#post-1100388 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 13:44:36 +0000 Ornella 1100388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are pretty and would work great for your style. I don't know if you walk a lot and if the fact there is no strap would make them suitable for walking, but that is minor of the two issues.</p> <p>I have budget concerns though.</p> <p>Boots take a lot of strain because of the conditions they are worn in. I would rather invest in spare pare of boots, because those are the lifestyle conditions that need to be taken care of. </p> </p> <p>ETA: Plus, good boots are hard to come across in my experience and I think they are best bought when you come across&nbsp;the right pair, rather than when you need them. Needing something ends up with a lot of frustration when searching and maybe even unwanted compromise. I would not want to compromise on boots.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-a-shopping-mistake#post-1100381 Thu, 28 Nov 2013 13:22:50 +0000 Neel 1100381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I typed an entire post and it just disappeared. &nbsp;Grrrr....I now know how Una feels! &nbsp;o_O</p> <p>So I fell for these today (though it was not in my wishlist):</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.stevemadden.com/Item.aspx?id=101490&amp;np=157_363">http://www.stevemadden.com/Ite.....np=157_363</a></p> <p>They are comfy, cute and fill my wardrobe hole of dressy flats. &nbsp;But is it worth the full price I paid (that pair is not on sale here )? &nbsp;The high vamp makes me a bit doubtful about its versatility. &nbsp;Would they work well with dresses and skirts too?</p> <p>If I buy this pair I will have to make do with one pair of boots because I do not wish to overshoot my budget. &nbsp;K/R? </p>
